Shelly Belly
Hatikva 6 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Policeman a stop Shelly Belly
Him aks fi the license of Shelly Belly
Policeman a stop Shelly Belly
Stop bother Belly Stop bother Belly

Pull over, show me your registration
Hope you understand the reason for my action
He said pull over, illegal combination
You can't drive a car with a phone inna your hand
Said poor Shelly Belly shocking information
She tried to tell her side of the situation
"Tell it to the judge – that is my consolation"
1000 shekels worth a violation
Policeman a stop Shelly Belly
Him aks fi the license of Shelly Belly
Policeman a stop Shelly Belly
Stop bother Belly Stop bother Belly

Shelly have decided to fight this ya one
Claiming in court: "I'm an innocent woman"
She had good answers inna interrogation
But policeman forgot to answer one question
He said: "Me can't remember each and every person"
But how can he forget Shelly's style and fashion
You tan deh officer me want investigation
You need more responsibility in your occupation

Policeman a stop Shelly Belly
Him aks fi the license of Shelly Belly
Policeman a stop Shelly Belly
Stop bother Belly Stop bother Belly

Miss judge she had a miss judgment
It is a word against word argument
To justice the court is ignorant
Maybe the whole organization needs some improvement
Politician & police officer seem to have a lead
When the system haffi swallow almost anything them feed
We shout: "Equal rights is what we need"




For now, 1000 shekels ...
what a boom to de pocket...
